One other caveat -- if you're using CF cards, make
sure your they support the
CF interface, and not just IDE; I have 3 Hitachi 4GB microdrives (tiny hard
drives in a CF form-factor) and it turns out this particular model only has
an IDE interface. The CF slot in these devices don't support the IDE
interface and so they will not be recognized (which is a bummer...)
I believe OEM drives for iPod and other appliances had the CF interface
disabled. Most of the Hitachi units on eBay appear to be of that type.
